I'm delighted. You know where we hold him, he's one of the best horses I've ever trained. Last year was tough, but it's lovely to see him back. He was brilliant and Rachael was super on him, she gave him a brilliant ride. There are a lot of people to thank but I have to mention Robert Power and Brian (Acheson). We stopped with him last January and Robbie has done a lot of work with him during the summer and into this season. He came down to us looking amazing. There are a lot of people to thank, the team at home, but Robbie stands out for all the work he's done with him. We better ask him what he was doing and start doing it with all of them!. He stayed at it really well. The way he burst through and then I thought 'oh no it's the same as last year when Zanahiyr came back at him'. I thought we were in trouble there, obviously Zanahiyr picked up and we were a bit slow at the last. It was lovely to see, he's a real good horse and it's nice to see him hopefully starting to come back. It was a tough race, his first run since January. Henry De Bromhead, trainer
